I have had the WORST luck with "Beauty Rings"
Every time I hit a bump, I hear that hollow metal rolling sound.....and have to pull over.
3 different fords, same exact problem, Almost everyone I know, has better luck than I do with them, I ended up finding myself playing horse shoe toss with them

do you know what width the wheels are, i asume they are the origionals?? i have a few set's of factory steelies, one set is 8" wide the others are 7" but i hear were a 9" ones made also. i think i'll try running the 8's cause they seem to have less backspacing.. they dont come close to the bumper on your truck do they, the rub on the springs is common.

Oh yeah, it's a 6.9, T19 4speed and 4:11 gears
was all original with 96K on the clock.
